Where is the ocean Avon is talking about? Where Blake isn’t. |

Pity that Zil got lost. She would have been a nice addition to the Liberator crew. An alien is never useless.

Incidentally, do we ever come across Avon's cloaking device again?

In the context of computers, "PAR" usually refers to a PARity file (.par or .par2), a type of file used to repair or verify the integrity of other files.

How come Zil speaks English, then? Built-in Google translator? No, serious, I take it Zil is telepathic and so brings her thoughts over. Blake is only imagining that he sees Zil's mouth moving. (it is moving, but only as reflex) They transmit this ability genetically to their offspring, just as birds inherit the ability to fly. |

Incidentally, do we ever come across Avon's cloaking device again? I'll explain now! It's mentioned later on in Hostage that it's broken. And to compound his misery, Avon has found the Feds have developed something similar. Hence his comment: "I was rather hoping to sell them the idea." Vote Og.

It's interesting to see a federation officer having morals when all we have seen of the Feds is corrupt and self serving.

AVON All right, what death defying feat must we undertake in order to do that? BLAKE Will this detector shield work? AVON Yes. Avon is a too honest man. *No, I am not. I am not expendable, I'm not stupid, and I'm not going.*

This is The Federation Broadcasting Corporation. We have reestablished a link with our newsroom on Fedsat 1. We return you now to our roving reporter Lee R. Pantsonfire. Take it away, Lee. This is Lee R Pantsonfire live at Fedsat 1. Details are sketchy, but it appears the infamous terrorist Blake launched a daring hit and run attack on Fedsat 1 that has left several officials dead. From my vantage point just OUTSIDE the courtroom, I did see Space Commander Travis running from the scene just as the blast doors were sealed. Travis engaged in a brief and violent encounter with a brave Federation trooper before running towards the docks and the Supreme Commander's office. Details are not available at this time, but it appears that casualties are high, and still rising. . . Cockatoo? What Cockatoo? I don't see a Cockatoo! |

brilliant line and brilliant delivered by Jacks: Travis knew, right from the beginning. It really is a pity he's got to die. He's so much better than anything I've got left. *No, I am not. I am not expendable, I'm not stupid, and I'm not going.*
